Tinder is reportedly adding a panic button for when bad dates go horribly wrong.
The Wall Street Journal says Tinder is preparing to roll out some safety features like a panic button and safety check-ins. Tinder has partnered with Noonlight giving users the ability to log details like who their date is and where they are meeting. Users can then hit a panic button that will alert police if their date becomes dangerous.
Tinder will also add photo verification, check-in features that you can share, and a system that can identify “offensive messages” giving you the option to report the offending party. These new features are scheduled to roll out on January 28th.
